Ai! La misèria ens farà feliços
A lucid and futuristic satire about the craft of living, acting, and being human in a world ruled by robotic perfection
A lucid and futuristic satire about the craft of living, acting, and being human in a world ruled by robotic perfection
Following the international success of Història d’un senglar, Gabriel Calderón presents a piece that questions the role of art, identity, and the acting profession in an automated society. With a sarcastic tone and echoes of Calderón de la Barca, the Uruguayan playwright envisions a theatrical dystopia in which humanity and actors have become obsolete. What remains of the human being when machines can do everything better? Featuring Pere Arquillué, Laura Conejero, Joan Carreras, and Daniela Brown, this is a sharp satire on the meaning (or not) of continuing to perform.
